Background and activities
I am a PhD student in linguistics at the Department of Language and Literature, NTNU. My project is about multilingualism, more specifically third language acquisition, and aims to investigate how one’s native language and one’s second language respectively influence the acquisition of a third language. The project focuses on the acquisition of French as a third language among native speakers of Norwegian whose second language is English.
I am a member of the research group AcqVA, and my project is also associated with FANT. Additionally, I teach courses in English linguistics on campus and online.
